CSA 2017

CSA 2017

Through the Catholic Services Appeal (CSA), our participation as individuals and as a parish enables us to unite with all Catholics in the Diocese of Grand Rapids. Our collective blessings fund important work that benefits our parish and diocesan programs and individuals, families, and communities throughout our 11 counties. Every gift, regardless of amount, is important to funding essential ministries and programs.

There are two ways to make a pledge:

·Fill out the pledge card and return it to the parish office. (Pledge cards were mailed to you the week of April 30. Pledge cards are available in church and in the parish office if you need a new one.)

·Go online by clicking on the link below and make a pledge using your debit/credit card or bank account.

Our CSA effort is not complete until we have a pledge card from every household. Please complete and return your pledge card or donate online this week. If you cannot participate financially, please pray for the success of CSA, then complete your pledge card with a zero pledge and return your card to the parish office.

Welcome!

Welcome to our clustered parishes of St. Mary & Our Lady of Grace!

We are a cluster of the three church families of St. Mary's, St. Jean Baptiste and Our Lady of Grace! We are under the two Parish umbrellas of St. Mary's and Our Lady of Grace.

We are forming new friendships and building a strong and unified faith community as we come together to honor God under the direction of our shared Pastor, Rev. Matthew Barnum.

Please celebrate Holy Mass with us at any of the day time or weekend services!
